Seems like we’re not the only ones getting the kinks out after nineteen days off. In addition to the Caps blowing a two-goal lead to the Florida Panthers, CSN Washington’s broadcast was not exactly error free either.

First, the low camera angle caught a cotton candy guy selling his wares in the foreground instead of, ya know, hockey. And then, just a moment later, this.

Un-mute the above Vine to hear.

That’s “You’ve Got Mail,” the infamous and omnipresent piece of sound from America Online back in the day.

You thought that sound didn’t exist anymore, didn’t you? Not only does it still exist, but it’s somewhere on the CSN-DC soundboard.

Ted Leonsis, former executive for AOL, has some explaining to do.
